Never used HC but from what I gather they are pretty quick. I have ordered from Gearbest a couple times, think it was about 2 weeks. Both are reliable, but no idea what customer service is like if you ever need it.

I refer to those as full recipe concentrates and thats how I make a lot of my juice. In the U.K. Eco-vape.uk sell them too. Their Black Friday sales cut the prices in half so I stock up for the year.
I should do more diy. It's a little overwhelming for me. I need to sit down and find some recipes I want to try and then buy flavoring for that. I know it's very easy but to get started is expensive ish. And overwhelming g just trying to find good recipes
About aw
As for the aw battery deal. If you're going to link to mxjo results (which have very different end product than my results) you should also link to aw tests that show the batteries are identical to authentic first party batteries. For example the aw 3000 mah rewrao of the hg2 performs almost identically. Iirc the oem wrap outperformed the AW slightly. I'd have to reread mooch's test.
Also as I understand it the inspection is done as part of s contract deal and it's something g the. Oem cell Manufacturers do already when they create a b c stock. So inspected by aw employees would actually mean inspected at the factory as part of the contract by employees who are at that hour contracted to him not that he's getting in a thousand batteries and testing each and every cell then selling off other ones. Again as I understand it.
I'm not going to get us bogged down in a big debate about this. People are going to have different opinions. To me if I can avoid buying rewrapped cells and buy the actual cell that's branded by the manufacturer for half the cost or less I will. I do own aw batteries. I did a lot of research on them beyond their pr statement. In the end there is nothing in performance to show their additional price is worth it to me. I can buy 2-3 cells from the oem for the price of aw. The. Batteries going out as oem cells are all a stock. Just like aw.
Their wraps are cool looking and thick. I like the fact they're more tear resistant than many oem wraps. That's about the only positive I have to say. Similarly the only negative I have to say is pricing. I'm not debating that aw choose good cells to rewrap. They do for sure. But at the end of the day you can spend $12 or whatever on a 3000 mah aw or get 2 hg2 for $10 and you'll have the same experience with either one.
Even provape stopped recommending aw in the end. I can't say why but There were internal resistance issues according to them that made the provape battery meter perform wrong. According to an email exchange.
Here's the aw 3000 mah test which shows it's an hg2 and there's no practical reason to buy over a hg2
AW 20A 3000mAh Flat-Top 18650 Bench Test Results...a good high-capacity 20A battery, could be an HG2
Regarding my personal aw experience
I'm a fan of the aw 14500 batteries. I just wish they didn't expire so fast. Inside a year one of three I bought died just like the 18350 two more seem to be performing poorly now. Out of 7 aw batteries I own two died within a year. The only other battery I've had die fast was a vtc5 which died within a month and was 1/4. I have not seen a hg2 die yet. Or a 25q. I own around 6 hg2 and have had 14 25q many of which have since been given to friends. I have a four year old mxjo 350 which provides better life and performance than the newer aw at his point in the p3. But that could be a provape thing with their internal resistance.
I'm not against aw. Again if you buy aw you're getting a quality cell. I just think there's very limited reason to buy aw or any other rewrap in popular sizes like 18650. I believe this is the same conclusion mooch has reached on multiple
Occasions.
Here is the link to mooch's tests and you can see what his findings are with aw. Nothing is particularly impressive or stands out from what I see.

Did you try to track it with 17track.net? It will track all the shippers. You just input the tracking number and the status will pop up
I must have missed the original post about that. Is that an assemble yourself box or does it come premade? What's the cost and where does one get them ?
THe size is great. Looks similar to the boxer bf I just bought.
I had to deal with CS at HC for a VV4 that was DOA. I received a response within an hour and was done in 2 hours. A far cry better that FT which I won't deal with soon after all the crap customer service I have received from them.
Well, not my picture so I can't answer all your questions, but as I understand it they sell through Facebook. And it's a 3D printed mod, so I would think it's very similar to the boxer.
@Krisma, is this what you are referencing above:
One Shot Concentrates - Flavor Concentrates - <p class="shopbydepartment"><span style="font-size: 14px;">Shop by</span><span style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold;">Department</span></p>
And what is this (is this a flavor or a concentrate of a mix?), any idea?

I also noticed that EE also has a recipe kit option, which has everything you need to make a recipe yourself:

Sorry for the confusion, I did post the picture, it just isn't my mod, it's a picture I stole from the 'net, just to make a bad joke about toasters and vaping.
Ah that makes sense. I tried searching 3D toaster. I'd but the results had nothing to do with vaping
Thanks. That's promising. I hope I don't have to go that route.
Yes, it's real. The fly is called The Green Highlander, a classic full dress salmon flys from days gone by. I wanted it about 1/2 that size, by the tattoo artist said he couldn't get all the detail in anything smaller than what you see.
70 pg? ?
Yep, small tats can't hold detail and will fade/run within just a few years. Better to go large, especially if you have any amount of detail.Yes, it's real.

The 18350 ones are good cells, it's the 18650's that are rewraps. In fact 18350 cells are recommended to use with provaris & for good reason too!
Darn, a local! (I.e. on the good side of the mountains
)Don't know about Schrodinger's Mod, but several people seem to like Schrodinger's Tanks.
All mine have the center poly section, various colors so I can keep track of what flavor is in what KF. The cat is usually either on my lap or has run off with my mouse....
